Students will explore a different artistic component of the theater --from costume, lighting, set, and prop design, to learning what it is like to be an actor on the Fulton stage. Students will get a comprehensive theater experience and will even take a Fulton Theatre backstage tour!
In this class session, students will bring a well-known fairy tale to life by creating and developing their own script, characters, costume plots, and scenery. Their final piece will be showcased in a performance on the last class.
